IRC Getting the Bots to join a channel with a key (+k) - Outbreak - 14.07.2009

Hi, i was searching all over this forum and another forum, and on different search engines.

I couldnt fine anything that would allow me to have an IRC Bot join my key protected (+k) channel to echo ingame messages.

I tried doing this...

pawn Код:

native ircJoinKeyChan(conn, channel[], key[]);

But it wouldnt work, it actually crashed my gamemode when trying to run it.

Then, when the bot connected i tried making it do ircSay("/join #channel key");

That didnt work either..

Then i had an idea

I defined the channel as #define ECHO_CHAN "#channel key"

Then for the connection i did

ircJoinChan(EchoConnection[0], ECHO_CHAN);

And it worked... The bot joined a key protected channel.

The only problem was it kept saying the key before every message.

<echoBot>: key [8]PlayerName: blah blah

It kept appearing like that.

So i defined the channel twice.

pawn Код:

#define ECHO_CHAN "#channel" // this is where msgs echo
#define ECHO_CHAN_KEY "#channel key" 

//Then when it comes to joining the channel
ircJoinChan(EchoConnection[0], ECHO_CHAN_KEY);

and for echo messages send them to ECHO_CHAN

Worked perfect for me.

I think you better use ircSendRawData.

ircSendRawData also isn't working. I was looking for a solution for this a long time ago but couldn't find it. This is quite usefull for people who want bots in their channels with a key on it, although I don't exactly know what is should be for? I think you're not giving the channel key to all players in your server?

ircSay does this:
PRIVMSG #CHANNEL :MESSAGE
If you make that to join you somewhere then it would be
PRIVMSG #CHANNEL :/join #CHANNEL PASSWORD

IRC raw isn't like the softened stuff you got in mIRC.
JOIN #channel password: ircSendRawData(conn, "JOIN #channel key");

Works insanely well for me.

I tried those other things. None worked.

All im doing is posting here what actually worked for me.

Since i searched around and couldn't find anything explaining how to do it. I thought i'd post how i got it working for me.

Only problem i've found is its crash prone in Linux servers, but perfect in wondows..

not sure why though..

Re: IRC Getting the Bots to join a channel with a key (+k) - Outbreak - 16.07.2009

Both the method posted by me and the one posted by c0der work perfectly fine, only on a windows server.

I added this same method to my Linux server and it kept crashing making the server constantly restart. The bot was joining the +k channel but kept quitting due to excess flood or time exdeed I think.
